REVIEW — TFW-42 / Phase A: Conventions & Templates

Date: 2026-04-30 Author: Reviewer (Antigravity) Verdict: ✅ APPROVE Review Mode: docs RF: RF Phase A TS: TS Phase A Stage files: review/map.md, review/verify.md, review/judge.md This file is a synthesis of stage findings. Reference stage files for raw evidence.


1. Map

The executor rewrote conventions.md §4 to establish a unified research/iterN/ container, renamed 4 stage file templates with numeric prefixes (1_briefing.md4_challenge.md), enriched the iterations.yaml schema with optional agent and sources fields, normalized phase folder naming from PascalCase to kebab-case, added a 5-row agent selection guidance table, and updated the RES template. Two approved deviations: §4 section reordering (coordinator-approved in ONB) and multi-phase tree alignment with new container convention.

2. Verify

# What was checked Result Evidence
V1 conventions.md §4 Research subfolder (lines 131-150) Single research/ container, iterN/ pattern, numbered stages, co-located RES.md all confirmed
V2 conventions.md §4 iterations.yaml schema (lines 166-190) agent + sources commented-out as optional, res_file paths use research/iterN/RES.md, no dropped fields, "traceability, not dispatch" text present
V3 .tfw/templates/research/ directory listing 4 numbered files present, 0 unnumbered files
V4 conventions.md §4 Agent selection guidance (lines 192-204) 5-row table, no tool brand names, "guidance, not prescription" footer
V5 conventions.md §4 Phase folder naming (lines 113-125, 210-227) phase-{x} format, phase-a examples, 0 PhaseA matches
V6 .tfw/templates/RES.md line 15 Updated to 1_briefing.md in iteration folder
V7 conventions.md Review subfolder reference (line 208) Updated to research/iterN/1_briefing.md

Verification at 117% (7/6 files). Zero discrepancies. 7 knowledge citations verified, 0 hallucinations. Raw log: see review/verify.md.

3. Judge

# Check Status Evidence
1 DoD met? (all TS acceptance criteria) All 6 ACs verified. Each sub-item confirmed against actual file content (verify.md V1-V7)
2 Philosophy aligned (matches HL design philosophy) All 6 applicable HL §7 principles enforced: locality (V1), sort order (V3), container (V1), consistent casing (V5), optional enrichment (V2), tool-agnostic (V4)
3 Tech debt documented RF §5 has 5 observations with file/line references
4 Style & standards Formatting consistent with existing conventions.md. YAML indentation correct. Table style matches
5 Observations collected 5 observations, all typed and actionable (4 for Phase B/C, 1 historical)
6 RF completeness (§6-8 present) §6 Fact Candidates, §7 Strategic Insights, §8 Diagrams — all present with explicit N/A content
7 Content quality (docs mode) Logical section ordering, accurate examples, complete coverage, consistent tone
8 Source verification (docs mode) 7 HL §7.2 citations verified — all resolve to existing knowledge items

4. Verdict

✅ APPROVE

Clean execution of a well-scoped documentation restructuring task. All 6 acceptance criteria met with zero discrepancies at 117% verification coverage. Both deviations from TS (section reordering, multi-phase tree update) were justified — the first was pre-approved in ONB, the second follows logically from AC-1. Observations are actionable and correctly scoped to Phase B/C.

No "No fact candidates" or "No strategic insights" concerns — this is a pure structural refactoring of existing conventions with no user interaction during execution that would generate strategic knowledge.

5. Tech Debt Collected

# Source Severity File Description Action
TD-111 RF obs. #1 Med .tfw/compilable_contract.md (L56, L78) References PhaseA/ in resolution rules — will break on kebab-case convention → Phase B/C or dedicated task
TD-112 RF obs. #2 Med .tfw/workflows/handoff.md (L140-141) Multi-Phase Task Flow example uses HL__PhaseA, TS__PhaseA, RF__PhaseA → Phase B
TD-113 RF obs. #3 Med .tfw/workflows/plan.md (L134-136) Multi-phase structure example uses PhaseA/, HL__PhaseA__, TS__PhaseA__ → Phase B
TD-114 RF obs. #4 Med .tfw/workflows/research/base.md (L53) References research/briefing.md and researchN/briefing.md — needs update to research/iterN/1_briefing.md → Phase B

RF obs. #5 (CHANGELOG.md historical reference) — not collected. Historical entries should not be retroactively modified.

6. Traces Updated

  • [ ] README Task Board — status updated
  • [ ] HL status — updated if phase completes
  • [ ] project_config.yaml — initial_seq incremented if needed
  • [ ] Other project files — checked for stale info
  • [ ] tfw-docs: N/A (Phase A of multi-phase — defer to task completion)
  • [ ] tfw-knowledge: N/A (no fact candidates generated)

7. Fact Candidates

No fact candidates. This was a pure documentation restructuring with no user interaction that revealed new project knowledge.
